Can't quite recall how many times that exposure is used in this piece, but it went something like this:
Open camera raw file
Open in Photoshop
Duplicate initial layer twice
Change canvas size to twice as wide
Flip one of the duplicate layers over
Move it over to mirror and/or overlap the original
Rotate entire canvas 90 degrees
Duplicate the mirroring/overlapping layers and merge them into one layer
Change the canvas size to twice as wide again
Flip the merged mirrored/overlapping layer
Move it over to mirror/overlap the original group of mirrored/overlapping layers
Repeat that last part one more time
Align the three sets of mirroring/overlapping layers with 2nd set centered in canvas and other two overlapping on the outside edges
Adjust transparency on all layers
Make another duplicate of the main set of mirrored/overlapping layers
Flip it 90 degrees
Duplicate that rotated layer set three more times
Mirror, overlap and adjust transparency of those four sets to taste!
My Holidays will never ever be complete without a trip to Araneta Center to see this giant Christmass tree.
